Neurol 70:1438-1444, Becker,C.,et al, 2008
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Current long-term use of calcium channel blockers was associated with a significantly reduced risk of a Parkinson disease diagnosis, while the risk was not materially altered for users of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors or beta-blockers and, with less statistical precision, for users of angiotensin II antagonists.
